The data in the tree test cannot be automatically converted to `bytes`
as a encoding is necessary in that case:

```python
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "/srv/slapgrid/slappart66/git/pygolang/golang/__init__.py", line 125, in _
    return f(*argv, **kw)
  File "/srv/slapgrid/slappart66/git/wendelin.core/wcfs/internal/xbtree/xbtreetest/treegen.py", line 281, in TreesSrv

    blkdata = bytes(buf)                    # FIXME does memcpy
TypeError: string argument without an encoding
```

As we know that the data is ASCII, we use the ASCII encoder to convert
it to `bytes`.

[In Go, strings can contain arbitrary bytes](https://go.dev/blog/strings)
(similar to the ones in Python 2), and there is no explicit `bytes`
class.
Thus, all the code that deals with arbitrary data in Go is currently
using the string type.

However, the [ogórek package](https://github.com/kisielk/og-rek) used
to load Python pickles in Go, decodes Python 3 `bytes` objects as a
special string type `ogórek.Bytes`, incompatible with APIs expecting
normal strings.
This causes errors such as the following:
```

```

In order to fix that, we have copied the [`Xstrbytes` function from NEO](
https://lab.nexedi.com/kirr/neo/-/blob/f7776fc1689b0d62e582b132ecc017ab72dc3b23/go/zodb/internal/pickletools/pickletools.go#L49-64)
in the `pycompat.go` file, which accepts either a string or an
`ogórek.Bytes` object and returns the corresponding string.

We have used that function whenever a `bytes` object could be present.

The example data ('abcdefghij') should be iterated as a string, and not
as `bytes`.
Iterating a `bytes` object in Python 3 returns `int`, not `bytes`,
giving the following error on decoding:

```
--- FAIL: TestΔBTail (1.26s)
panic: root['treegen/values']: key ['b']: expected str, got int64 [recovered]
        panic: file:///tmp/TestΔBTail2213686135/001/1.fs: @03f97a31f270e722: get blktab: root['treegen/values']: key ['b']: expected str, got int64 [recovered]
        panic: file:///tmp/TestΔBTail2213686135/001/1.fs: @03f97a31f270e722: get blktab: root['treegen/values']: key ['b']: expected str, got int64
```

Instead, we can iterate as a string and encode each character to `bytes`
afterwards.

The builtin `zip` in Python 3 returns an iterator, not a list.
Thus, one cannot directly use the `len` method on the object returned
by `zip`, or we will have errors like the following one:

```

Thus, we have to create a list from the result of `zip` before calling
`len` on it.

Because of the way wendelin.core organizes its in-tree python importing
redirector (see wendelin.py) it is possible to import the same module
twice with python thinking it is importing two different modules. For
example when installed in develop mode python resolves the following
imports to the same bigfile/__init__.py

    import wendelin.bigfile
    import bigfile

but tries to load that module twice and independently. Which leads to
virtmem DSO, linked to from under bigfile/_bigfile extension, being
initialized twice and complaining about that because only single gil
hook should be requested to be installed:

    (py39.venv) kirr@deca:~/src/wendelin/wendelin.core$ python

This problem was there from day 1, but it was not creating issues in
practice because wendelin.core users do `import wendelin...` and there
was also no problem with running pytest in the source tree.

However with py39 and pytest8 we see that running pytest somehow started
to unconditionally import things from under two namespaces which leads
to inability to run tests even when instructing pytest to collect them
via python-modules namespace instead of filesystem:

This happens because wendelin.bigfile is importing
wendelin.bigfile._bigfile as `from ._bigfile import ...` which under
pytest leads to importing both wendelin.bigfile._bigfile and
bigfile._bigfile and further conflicting when setting up GIL hooks.

-> Fix this issue by avoiding relative imports and always referring to
   wendelin.core modules with `wendelin.` prefix.

The list of places where relative imports were used was small and found via

    $ git grep -w import |grep '\s\.'
    bigfile/__init__.py:from ._bigfile import BigFile, WRITEOUT_STORE, WRITEOUT_MARKSTORED, ram_reclaim
    wcfs/__init__.py:from .client._wcfs import \

Everywhere else we were already importing things from under wendelin
namespace via fully specified module path.

After the fix both

    $ pytest -vsx --pyargs wendelin.bigfile.tests.test_basic

and

    $ pytest -vsx bigfile/tests/test_basic.py

start to work ok from inside the worktree.

When building an editable wheel it is not necessary that
`build_packages` (or even `run`) is called before calling `get_outputs`
(notice the following in
https://setuptools.pypa.io/en/latest/userguide/extension.html#supporting-sdists-and-editable-installs-in-build-sub-commands :
"Please note that custom sub-commands SHOULD NOT rely on `run()` being
executed (or not) to provide correct return values for `get_outputs()`,
`get_output_mapping()` or `get_source_files()`. The `get_*` methods
should work independently of `run().").

Our implementation relied in the call to `build_packages` to set the
name of the synthetic init file.
This commit uses a property of the object instead, to compute that name
whenever it is necessary.
With this change, it is now possible to make editable wheels.

The interface of the function `search_include_directories` has changed
in Cython 3.0a7 in https://github.com/cython/cython/commit/f3f7b612.
This updates the replacement used by wendelin so that it works for
both newer and older versions.

Note that wendelin.core still does not work with Cython >= 3, as that
version refuses to compile Python functions that can throw C++
exceptions (apparently, mixing C++ exceptions and Cython-generated
code is not considered safe).

If a user doesn't explicitly declare a ZBlk format, it can be assumed
that this user wants to have the best ratio between consumed storage space
and data access speed. Currently the best ratio between these two is
provided by the new 'auto' (heuristic) format. In case of small appends this
format helps reducing storage space, and in any other case it just
behaves like ZBlk0 [1]. Therefore this default ensures a fast access speed [2],
but also avoids a massive data growth in case of many small appends [3].

[1] An exception to this is: in its current implementation a block
behaves like ZBlk1 (slow access) in case it isn't fully filled up yet.

[2] As this was stated as a reason why ZBlk1 as a default format was
reverted in nexedi/wendelin.core@0b68f178.

[3] This was perhaps the reason why ZBlk1 was set to be the default format
in nexedi/wendelin.core@9ae42085. The massive
storage space consumption can already be a problem with few array to
which regularly small data is appended to, as it can easily happen with
Wendelin development instances.

There are two formats to save data with a ZBigFile: ZBlk0 and ZBlk1.
They differ by adjusting the ratio between access-time and growing
disk-space, where ZBlk1 is better regarding to disk space, while ZBlk0
has a better access-time. Wendelin.core users may not always know yet or
care which format fits better for their data. In this case it may be
easier for users to just let the program automatically select the ZBlk
format. With this patch and the new 'auto' (for heuristic) option of the
'ZBlk' argument of ZBigFile, this is now possible. The 'auto' option isn't
really a new ZBlk format in itself, but it just tries to automatically
select the best ZBlk format option according to the characteristics
of the changes that the user applies to the ZBigFile.

In its current implementation, the heuristic tackles the use-case of
large arrays with many small append-only changes. In this case 'auto' is
smaller in space than ZBlk0, but faster to read than ZBlk1. It does so,
by initially using ZBlk1 until a blk is filled up. Once a blk is full,
it switches to ZBlk1, as it was recommended by @kirr in
nexedi/wendelin.core!20 (comment 196084).

With this patch comes a test (bigfile/tests/bench_zblkfmt) that creates
benchmarks for different combinations and zblk formats. The test aims
to check how the 'heuristic' format performs in contrast to 'ZBlk0'
and 'ZBlk1':

Fix typo.

This is utility function that we will need to use in the next patch to
see how data of two blocks are similar to each other.

We use numpy for the implementation because this code will be hot and if we
don't use optimized C routines writeout will become very slow.

Quoting draft patch kirr/wendelin.core@3f631932 :

    -> Also optimize ndelta computation - when done in plain python just
       this part was taking a lot of time as timing for initial writeup
       showed:

         writeup with ZBlk0: ~20-25s
         writeup with ZBlk1: ~20-30s
         writeup with auto:  was ~ 120s

       now, after switching to numpy for ndelta computation, whole runtime
       with 'auto' is taking ~ 35s. The whole runtime, if I observe
       benchmark execution correctly, is dominated by database writeup.

If a NEO cluster has multiple master nodes, there is no agreed
on order in which the master node addresses appear in the URI.
In order to insure we always get the same normalized URI among different
clients of a NEO cluster with more than one master node, we explicitly
sort the master node address order with this patch.

/reviewed-by @kirr
/reviewed-on nexedi/wendelin.core!17

In the old source code we already filtered NEO URI by dropping
credentials, but we applied this filter to any URI, not only the NEO
one. This patch adds a mechanism to apply various filter according to
the specific storage type. Starting with this new patch,
'zurl_normalize_main' also refuses to normalize an URI with an unknown
scheme.

/reviewed-by @kirr
/reviewed-on !17

After moving zurl filtering to a dedicated function, we can
now test this function for correctness. It's important that different
clients which point to the same storage always result in the same
zodburi, even if their initial user-specified zodburi slightly differs
(e.g. due to different client-side parameters or different paths of encryption).

/reviewed-by @kirr
/reviewed-on nexedi/wendelin.core!17

The WCFS mountpoint of any ZODB storage must be a unique, persistent,
repeatable hash. This means any client which uses the same storage must
always calculate the same WCFS mountpoint (independent from
client-only parameters etc.). Therefore the WCFS mountpoint calculation
must be robust for all supported ZODB storage types (at least NEO, ZEO,
filestorage).

It was recently decided [1] that in order to provide this robustness, WCFS
mountpoint calculation should filter the parsed URI in order to drop
parts, which prevents the repeatability/persistence across different
clients (e.g. parts which can differ between clients although the same
storage is accessed). In order to make this filtering implementation a
bit easier to read and the wcfs/__init__.py less dense, the first step
is to move the zurl filtering ("normalization") into lib/zodb.py
This also makes sense since this normalization can be regarded as a
general zodb tool which may be useful for other solutions which use
zodburi.

Kirill noted that fb620301 introduced a regression [1]:
'test_zstor_2zurl' sometimes passes and sometimes fails. The reason for
this is that there is no deterministic order of master nodes in
'NodeManager.getMasterList()', which is why there is no specified
order of master node addresses in a zurl [2]. We don't want to normalize
a zurl returned by 'zstor_2zurl' as we need some of the client-specific
parameters as SSL file paths, so we rather fix the test to allow any
possible order of NEO master nodes in the zurl.

/reviewed-by @kirr
/reviewed-on !17

The old code raised an explicit exception when converting a NEO storage
with > 1 master nodes into a URI. Perhaps the rationale for this exception
was that there isn't any agreed on order of master nodes in a NEO URI,
which means that building a URI from such a storage could potentially
break the invariant that any client which points to the same storage
should result in the same WCFS mountpoint.
With levin.zimmermann/wendelin.core@6f5196fa we can now rely on
WCFS mountpoint calculation to always return the same mountpoint even if
the order of master node addresses differ. Therefore we can drop this
exception and allow WCFS to support NEO clusters with more than one master.

--------

kirr: support for multiple masters was simply not implemented because in
a05db040 (lib/zodb: Teach zstor_2zurl about ZEO, NEO and Demo storages)
I though that we do not yet actually need it and wanted to have
something minimal first.

I agree that in WCFS context it is ok and makes sense to normalize zurl
to have masters coming in particular order. But at zstor_2zurl level we
rely on the order of masters that app.nm.getMasterList gives us. The
normalization is separate function.

The function to do it was there, but I missed to add corresponding defer.
Fixes 6f0cdaff (wcfs: Provide isolation to clients).

Update all dependencies of WCFS to their recent versions:

- ogórek: no change, just the version we already had was released as v1.2.0
- testify: some bugfixes (we use this package only during tests)

This patch allows using WCFS with a NEO or ZEO storage which is
reachable by a URL which contains an ipv6 host.

Without this patch the following example doesn't work:

>>> from wendelin.lib.zodb import dbopen
>>> root = dbopen("neo://cluster-name@[::1]:2051")
>>> # "abc" points to a ZBigArray
>>> root["abc"][0]

It doesn't work because the parser missed adding square brackets around
ipv6 hosts, due to which unparsing the resulting URL resulted in a wrong
interpretation where a port starts.

This patch furthermore amends 'test_zstor_2zurl' to test ZEO and NEO
storages with ipv6 hosts.

This patch adds comprehensive tests for 'wendelin.lib.zodb.zstor_2zurl'.
Before this patch only one related test existed ('test_zurlstable').
This test only lightly checked correct functionality of 'zstor_2zurl'.
Therefore we added the new tests 'test_zstor_2zurl' and
'test_zurlsamedb'.

The new tests only cover existing functionality.

Before this patch 'zsync(storage)' was effectless for ZEO storages, it
didn't synchronize the client with the server. This patch fixes 'zsync',
so that it also performs synchronization of ZEO clients.

Background information:
=======================

2006 the sync mode of ZEO has been removed:

  ZEO@629b0667

and only async mode was supported from then. This means, that the "sync"
method of ZEO.ClientStorage was in fact effectless. In ZEO 5 the
"server-sync" option has been added:

  https://github.com/zopefoundation/ZEO/pull/63

Setting this option to 'True' makes the 'sync' method performing a
"server round trip, thus causing client to wait for outstanding
invalidations" [1]. In this patch we imitate the effect of this flag
for both ZEO 4 and ZEO 5.

[1] https://github.com/zopefoundation/ZEO/blob/423cb8563be3e1ee0bb4297ee980d9b74f09c710/src/ZEO/ClientStorage.py#L225-L226

The 'shape' argument of 'numpy.ndarray's initialization method accepts
integer and sequences of integers. But the 'shape' property of
'numpy.ndarray' always returns tuple[int, ...], so numpy manually
casts any legal argument into tuple[int, ...].

In 'BigArray' and 'ZBigArray' this internal casting didn't exist yet.
This patch adds the casting.

Before:

  ZBigArray(shape=[1, 2, 3], dtype=float).shape == [1, 2, 3]

After:

  ZBigArray(shape=[1, 2, 3], dtype=float).shape == (1, 2, 3)

In this way BigArray and ZBigArray API behaves closer to numpy.ndaray,
which should help avoiding confusion when people are using BigArray /
ZBigArray.

-> Fix it by making build_dso also first come through `make all`.

NOTE we cannot fix it in exactly the same way as for build_ext: if we split
build_dso into build_dso and ll_build_dso, `make all` will still go to infinite
recursion: build_dso -> ll_build_dso -> build_dso (not ll_build_dso, this is controlled by setuptools_dso) -> oops.

Starting from version 0.1 pygolang provides File out of the box:

nexedi/pygolang@4690460b
https://pypi.org/project/pygolang/#pygolang-change-history

-> Use it and remove our custom File implementation that originally
served as POC for that pygolang functionality.

Don't use golang::* namespaces to avoid clashes with pygolang adding
something in there and getting compilation error due to conflict, when
e.g. nexedi/pygolang!17 lands.

-> use xgolang:: as top-level namespace for what was previously living
in golang:: shipped in wendelin.core.

Inside that xgolang:: namespace don't use the same package names that
might be used inside golang:: in pygolang. This avoids ambiguation and
compile error in the future on e.g. os::AfterFork - is `using namespace
golang` and `using namespace xgolang` were both activated.

-> Prefix all namespaces inside xgolang:: also with "x".

See nexedi/pygolang!17

The problem is similar to a7bf0311 (wcfs: Fix crash if on invalidation
handledδZ needs to access ZODB) - I forgot to put zhead's transaction into
context.

Without the fix added test fails as:

            # wcfs was crashing in setting up watch because of "1" and "2" from above, and
            # 3. setupWatch was calling ΔFtail.BlkRevAt without putting zhead's transaction into ctx.
            wl2 = t.openwatch()
    >       wl2.watch(zf, at2, {0:at1})

- put into if block to avoid collision with already-defined-elsewhere blkv
- show revisions in symbolic form

Noticed while working on recent change to allow ΔFtail/ΔBtail
point-queries with at=tail.

Watching with at=tail is inevitable as explained in the previous patch.

This is needed because when e.g. wcfs is just started the coverage of
ΔFtail is (head,head] i.e. empty, and if user wants to setup a watch
with at=head, it becomes watch with at=tail. Then that at is used in a
query and if point-queries with at=tail are disallowed it panics with
"at out of bounds".

This fixes crashes in test_wcfs_watch_setup (see 339f1884 "wcfs: tests:
Always start tDB with ZBigFile pre-created before WCFS startup") and in
test_wcfs_crash_old_data (see 97ce5105 "wcfs: tests: Add test do
demonstrate "at out of bounds" crash on readPinWatchers ->
ΔFtail.BlkRevAt")

For the reference zodb.ΔTail already allows point queries with at=tail:

https://lab.nexedi.com/kirr/neo/blob/1193c44e/go/zodb/δtail.go#L202-206
https://lab.nexedi.com/kirr/neo/blob/1193c44e/go/zodb/δtail.go#L225-228

The codepath that sends pin messages to watchers on FUSE READ, similarly
to what was showed in 339f1884 is also vulnerable to "at out of bounds"
panic if at=ΔFtail.tail:

Still also crashing in test_wcfs_watch_setup.

Soon this test will also exercise functionality from isolation protocol
as well and so it will stop to be basic.

Move plus rename test_wcfs_basic_invalidation_wo_dFtail_coverage ->
test_wcfs_crash_old_data.

Still crashing in test_wcfs_watch_setup.
